    Yeah, I think it would be harsh if that is what transpires.

    It's true. In fact that's actually an insult to Darren. He was a big boy and I'm sure he would say something if he felt he was being pushed too far rather than just hang himself because he couldn't cope with his managers demands. Sutherland was getting a lot of press, praise, and fan support, what more can a pro or his family ask for in a promoter?

    I wonder if this had anything to do with his last fight. It was a lot harder than expected and its fair to say it didn't end decisively. If Darren was as self-conscious a guy as he seemed he certainly may have been very harsh on himself regarding that fight and may have lost a lot of confidence in himself.

    Sweeny has to be the favourite for this one but **** guys he really should have consulted Egan before signing.Egan could have blocked this fight taking place and then the undercard would really be in trouble.

    On paper Sweeney but knowing what Sweeney is like behing the scenes Id have to put my money on Jamie

    Theres a reason the fight is being made at a catchweight..........

    thats all im saying on the matter

    No Hatton actually trains his bollix off in the run up to a fight!

    on the flipside Jamie Power is training his bollix off

    Sweeney on paper should win this but knowing Jamie as I do he will take this

    Jamies had some adversity along the way Sweeney has not

    And power is training his bollix off!

    Jamie is well up for this

    Ive promised him a snack box from Supermacs when he wins the Irish title so hes got every incentive to win now!

    think this fight like the Long vs Fitzgerald 1st fight will be decided from rd3 on and i,d favour Power to finish stronger, why do you not think Pajo being main support fight wont happen

    Peters is tight with Hennessy so Tyson Fury will probbly be shown live (it will end in a around or 2 so we will get another live fight)
    then they will possibly show Power/Sweeney as they have a 2 fight deal with peters for this card and his next one

    Its just that simple

    Pajo was lucky to even get on the show!

    which is a shame

    it is a shame as he,s the holder of 3 belts is unbeaten and the most experienced the Fury fight will be a joke and the lad Pajo fights was picked by Peters people
